The Giant Foresets Formation in the Taranaki Basin defines the present-day continental margin of the west coast of New Zealand’s North Island. Using regional 2D and 3D seismic datasets calibrated with exploration wells, this thesis presents a new highresolution seismic stratigra…
Basin and Petroleum System Modeling (BPSM) is coupled-physics approach that tracks over the course of basin history, the evolution of basin geometry, compaction, pressure, fluid flow, temperature, and chemical transformation of organic matter to quantitatively predict petroleum …
The recent discovery of petroleum in the Cretaceous strata has gained an interest to study the source of the petroleum fluids mainly generated by the Triassic Shublik Formation in the Alaska North Slope. The Shublik Formation is known as one of the key source rocks in the Alaska…
The Permian Basin has been a critical source of oil and gas in the United States since its discovery in the early 1900’s. Recent developments in unconventional resource extraction have driven the United States to reach milestones in its domestic energy industry, including becomi…
At the highest level, this dissertation investigates marine systems from a geochemical and sedimentological perspective through the undertaking of six distinct and only somewhat tenuously interrelated contributions. Nonetheless, the work detailed herein might be thought of as fi…
Antarctica is the only continent on Earth that does not have a history of commercial minerals development. To date, the non-economic nature of Antarctic minerals, combined with legal impediments, technological, climatic, and physical difficulties, and issues of remoteness, have …
